John Henry Redwood's gentle, sweet-natured comedy, set in Harlem in 1943, is about the relationship of two aging, church-going sisters and what happens when a handsome young fellow, newly arrived from the Deep South, rents a room in the apartment they share.

Although firmly grounded in a particular time and place, the play also transcends its setting to portray the shifting relationship between siblings as they reach a certain age.
